Question
QUESTION: Dear Sir, my question is that science has proved that living things cannot be created by dead things. Then why we say that human beings are created naturally by dead things as darwin says. is it not confusing. Secondly if a child born physically handicap no one can make him normal. is not a miracle that a child grows teeth in his mouth and so many other things. Does these things happen without any other power behind that creation?

ANSWER: Hi Khalid
 First of all Darwin never said that human beings come from dead things. All life comes from life. At one time there were no living cells and then life began. Darwin did not talk about how or why life began. He gave us an explanation as to how life forms developed. If you want to view a human as a miracle that is certainly ok. I define a miracle as something that does not happen very often and birth happens all the time.
I cannot answer as to whether there is a power behind all this. I hope there is.

QUESTION: but then why science does not work to go behind that power and find that. The temperature of the earth is fit for human and animals existence. The soil grows plants while if we combine that nutrients essential for plant growth chemically that can never grow a plant. So is a normal person suddenly dies and no doctor can alive him again. is this matter not essential than any other discoveries.

Answer
Hi Khalid
Discoveries in science depend upon observable and testable facts. Unless this can be done then no conclusions can be made. The concept of a higher power is not testable. It can only be accepted on faith not by observable facts.
All plant and animal arises from previous life. This is a fact we can observe. Whether a creator started it or effects it we cannot. Perhaps someday we can.
Stick to your beliefs. Do not let evolution confuse you.
Charles Darwin has developed a workable hypothesis explaining how changes is living things has come about. He did not attempt to explain creation
